The governing council of the University of Lagos , Akoka, has fixed Monday and Tuesday, next week, for an emergency meeting.
The recent ‘harvest of queries’ on the campus whereby the governing council chairman instructed the registrar to query some members of the university management including the vice-chancellor, Oluwatoyin Ogundipe, had generated tension among the university staff and management. The letter, which was routed through the office of the NUC Executive Secretary, Rasheed Abubakar, urged the Minister to caution the council chairman on what it described as his excesses and disregard for rules and procedures.
The institution’s chapter of ASUU had instructed its members who were queried to revert to it for guidance and further actions. ASUU described the action of the governing council chairman as obnoxious, vindictive and illegal. ASUU also accused Mr Babalakin of running a ‘one-man show’ and that the Senior Advocate of Nigeria was fond of equating himself to the governing council he leads.
But ASUU has challenged the power of the council chairman to unilaterally query the affected members of the management, saying the report was yet to be presented for debate at the council.Some lecturers at the university, who would not want their names mentioned in print due to the sensitivity of the matter, have said the lasting solution to the lingering crises on the campus can only be through a visitation panel to the university.
